Action, horror , Kung-Fu and time travel in some classic Team-Up tales - Rated
Starting with Spider-Man and Daredevil taking on the unholy 3 Ani-men this volume not only teams Spidey and the Torch up with the leading lights of the Marvel universe but also brings back many old foes from Marvel history, Lava Men, The Chameleon, Meteor Man, the Enforcers, and Sand-Man for a starters.
We get the Torch & Thor (vs. the Lava Men), Spidey & the Hulk (vs. The Chameleon) for starters, Thankfully the one weak link appears early in this volume, the Hercules tale. The Torch teams up with Iron-Man (vs. Infinitus) and then the Son of Satan; Spider-Man joins forces with The Falcon and Iron Fist in single issue tales. These tales are good but then the book moves away from one-issue set pieces to a series of brilliant epics starting with both the Team-Up figureheads joining the Defenders as they take on the Looter (aka the Meteor Man) and the religious zealot Jeremiah.
A trip to Europe where Spidey, the Frankenstein Monster and Man-Wolf are captured by the Monster Maker. Then Spidey and the Beast take on the Griffin and Spidey and the Torch, aided by the Sons of the Tiger, take on a whole host of old foes, the Enforcers, Sand-Man, Big-Man and the Crime Master.
Then one of the great and visually stunning early Marvel epics a trip to 1692 as Spider-Man, the Scarlet Witch, Vision, Moondragon AND Doctor Doom face Cotton Mather and the Dark Rider amidst the Salem witch trials. Then a great decision to take Spider-Man on Doom's time machine into the future allows appearances from two of Marvel's futuristic oddities who were big at that time Killraven and Deathlok. Back to 1975 and Spider-Man and the Thing meet the Basilisk in a Two-in-One cross-over.
The last tale is another visually great tale as Spider-Man and Iron-Man meet the ghost like Wraith with assistance from Doctor Strange and appearances by Nick Fury and Matt Murdock.
The later tales written by Bill Mantlo are especially outstanding and the fact that two great artists Jim Mooney and Sal Buscema have long runs give it that extra impact.
I remember buying many of these comics when they first came out in the mid-1970s and they are still as enjoyable to read today.
